Wandering in the Desert-Where is God?

I wander in the desert. Where is God?

It’s hot, and dry…where is God?

I thirst, there is no water…where is God?

Day after day I put one foot in front of another
All that remains are footprints in the sand behind me. Soon the wind blows, a storm comes…and even my footprints disappear.

Nothingness…all around me…nothing but sand and more sand. No trees, no water, no life.

But wait. There IS life. Even in the most arid of deserts, creatures are still to be found. God is still there, always caring, always watching, always loving.
